Any recommendations?
I’ve been having such a hard time with Faye. She’s been lying non-stop.
Especially with her eating her lunch at school. And then just random stuff.
I’ll pick her up for the day, and I’ll ask her “Did you eat your lunch? All of it?”
She’ll lie straight to my face.
And then with the other random lies at home. Like if she’s cleaned her room or not, if she washed her hands after going potty, and just everythingggg. And it’s like, obviously I’m going to check your hands after you go potty… I can walk right upstairs and check your room to see if you actually cleaned it. I can catch you in your lie within seconds, girlfriend!
I’ve been putting her in time out. She cries and apologizes and when I ask her why she got in trouble, she says “I lied about ____.” But then she’ll go lie about something else a few hours later. So she KNOWS why she’s in trouble.
I’ve taken away TV (except yesterday when we got Frozen 2.), but like today shes already lied twice and the tv will remain off for the rest of the day now.
I’ve taken away treats for the most part. She’s a phenomenal eater (minus at school) so sometimes I’ll give in there. Like on the weekends, especially. She always eats all of her fruit & veggies so I’m usually a pushover at the end of the day for like a chocolate kiss or some ice cream or whatever.
But, still.
Any ideas?
